“GPAs are worthless as a criteria for hiring and test scores are worthless...Your ability to perform at Google is completely unrelated to

how you performed when you were in school, because the skills you acquired in

college are very different...

Reimagining credentials.

Page 26: Mozilla Open Badges 101: Nov 20 webinar

What are badges?

Page 27: Mozilla Open Badges 101: Nov 20 webinar

badges = digital representations of a skill or achievement

Page 28: Mozilla Open Badges 101: Nov 20 webinar

scouting may be the first example that comes to mind, but...

Page 29: Mozilla Open Badges 101: Nov 20 webinar

more and more, badges represent achievements on the web

Page 30: Mozilla Open Badges 101: Nov 20 webinar

some are just for fun or social status

Page 31: Mozilla Open Badges 101: Nov 20 webinar

but increasingly the skills are real, based on real tasks and work

Page 32: Mozilla Open Badges 101: Nov 20 webinar

reflecting real skills - which employers and schools are looking for

Page 33: Mozilla Open Badges 101: Nov 20 webinar

and willing to pay for, hire for, give credit for ➔ real results

Page 34: Mozilla Open Badges 101: Nov 20 webinar

Why badges?

Page 35: Mozilla Open Badges 101: Nov 20 webinar

Capture complete learning path.

Page 36: Mozilla Open Badges 101: Nov 20 webinar

Build and communicate reputation and identity.

Page 37: Mozilla Open Badges 101: Nov 20 webinar

Reinvent or augment existing credentials:

granular, evidenced-based and transferable.

Page 38: Mozilla Open Badges 101: Nov 20 webinar

Page 69: Mozilla Open Badges 101: Nov 20 webinar

Gerry McCartney, Purdue's vice president for information technology, CIO and Oesterle Professor of Information Technology

"Students learn in many ways and in a variety of settings while attending a university such as Purdue. In addition to formal lectures and homework, there is also time spent in labs and doing field work; time spent in service projects or internships; and experiences they glean from student organizations. The Passport app will give interested faculty and advisers another way to recognize and validate those skills for students."
